Key Challenges

Dogwood Epoxy, specializing in high-end epoxy flooring installation, faced several challenges in their marketing strategy:

 

  • Difficulty generating high-quality leads, with a significant portion of traffic coming from DIY enthusiasts interested in products rather than professional installation services.
  • Ineffective ad targeting, leading to wasted ad spend and poor audience engagement.
  • Lack of technical infrastructure for proper conversion tracking and website optimization, which inhibited the ability to refine PPC campaigns and assess performance accurately.

Key Results

WiT Group helped Dogwood Epoxy improve their PPC performance and optimize their website, resulting in significant gains across various metrics:

 

  • 50% increase in lead quality by refining audience targeting and excluding irrelevant searches.
  • 50% decrease in cost-per-lead through efficient ad spend management and targeted campaigns.
  • 30% increase in user engagement with improved website infrastructure and optimized user experience.

Key Services

WiT Group provided:

 

  • PPC Campaign Management: Optimizations were done by refining ad targeting, excluding non-customer search terms, and enhancing Google Ads performance.
  • SEO and Technical Optimizations: Updates to the website, Google Business Profile, Google Search Console, and conversion tracking (via Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics 4, Google Ads) were made to improve tracking and overall site performance.
  • Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) and User Experience Enhancements: Design updates, such as CTA button changes, color adjustments, and improved website flow, contributed to a better user experience and increased conversion rates.
  • Lead Quality & Cost-Per-Lead Improvements: Lead quality was increased by 50%, and cost-per-lead was reduced by 50% over two months, which aligns with the provided results.
“When I took over marketing at Sigma Group, the team had little or no data to measure marketing performance. Without tracking, we had no idea what we were getting from the money we spent on Marketing. I had worked with pay-for-performance marketing companies in the past and I knew how much value they could bring.”

Transitioning from a Complex, Multi-Site Strategy to Streamlined Success

Dogwood Epoxy originally relied on a simple web presence that didn’t capture their growing service area or the range of epoxy flooring options they offered. The limited site structure created challenges with ranking for high-intent keywords, competing against larger contractors, and clearly guiding potential customers through the decision process.

WiT Group partnered with Dogwood Epoxy to deliver strategic marketing support as their fractional CMO. We expanded their digital footprint with service and location pages, improved event tracking, refined audience targeting, and rebuilt their SEO strategy. These changes resulted in stronger keyword visibility, higher conversion rates, and a consistent flow of qualified leads across Monroe, Charlotte, and surrounding markets.

“We engaged with WiT Group. In the first three months, they cleaned up our websites indexing, site maps, and email marketing strategy. Most importantly, they created reporting that gave us direct visibility from advertising campaign to revenue. We accomplished more in the first 3 months with WiT Group than we had accomplished in the previous 12 months combined.”
